1 ALLEGANY COUNTY TRANSIT BUS ADVERTISING We appreciate your interest in advertising on Allegany County buses. We offer effective, affordable Rolling Billboards that travel throughout the City of Cumberland and surrounding communities. Our buses are, at times, rotated throughout each of these routes, meaning each bus ad will eventually be seen in all parts of our service area. Sign placement on the Allegany County Transit buses is as follows. For ad space availability contact the office or consult the Bus Advertisement Space Availability table. 1 of 5
